I Wish
The Honeyclub Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I want to be happy and merry
I wish that I'd never worry
They always leave me here in a hurry
All I want is to be glad, you know
So I'm going going mad
I wish that I'd never worry
So I wish that I was bad
I would climb right up into heaven
I wish that I had a ladder
The sooner I will have it the better
All I want is to be sane, you know
But I loose my, loose my mind
I wish that I had a ladder
To heaven would I climb
So many things happen everyday
It really hurts my brain
So many people talking, what do they say?
I guess they're all already insane
All I want is to make peace at last
But the world just spins so fast
I wish that I'd never worry
Is that too much to ask?
I wish that I had three wishes
Three wishes without any conditions
I wish that I had three wishes
Three wishes to my own descision
First I'd wish the world away
Then I'd wish you luck
I wish that I had three wishes
I wish I didn't give a fuck
